That looks like a perfect candidate for a rat rod. It looks like you are going in a good direction.

You gotta admit Pink Wagon wheels are unique... :lol:
I think I would take them over the poor excuse some guys call flames
Maybe if you ask Tim Fanatic real nice he can fix you up with a pic with some red steelies
It's a race.. Will hell freeze over or will JC finish his truck first. Stay tuned..

title says "how i want it to sit". lol
more likely than not, it will get cut springs in front and a hanger flip in the rear, until i can afford beams and a notch.

Low looks good there. The only thing I didn't like about cut springs up front on mine is that an allignment and front tires cost almost as much drop beams.

yeah, cut springs have their issues, but this truck won't see enough miles to worry about. i cut the springs on my 68, and while it had some negative camber, it didn't noticeably wear the tires in 2000 miles of driving.
alan, i'm going to do exactly what you did there with the rear springs.

Southern64, What ezer said is right!, I raised the rear mounts by putting the bottom rivet holes in line with the top holes, I thought that was easier than making longer hangers.
